Inspired by Idlewild. More specifically, Halloween, but I suppose the cover of the book helped.It needs to be read again. I do love that book.

Its been awhile since I've painted, so I gave this a go last night. Tried finishing it anyhow, this is about three weeks old, I was kinda wary about the state of the paper under the masking fluid. It was fine though.

Haha, I like the title. King of Orange and Black, indeed. Wait, why not Queen? Oh, now that you remind me, these are the colors of Halloween. Wow, it's amazing that you did it without reference... so it's just pure memory work! I like the aura-like border-like thingy (sorry, I have a limited vocabulary xD). It makes this 'King' stand out more... He looks really real On a second look, I think it could look with looking more symmetrical, though. Good job with your watercolours. Now I really want to take art as a subject... but I already have 8 subjects... sigh.

Hahaha that's the best art is when you get it on ya I remember going to my history class after art, and my teacher just burst out laughing before sending me away to go wash. I hadn't realized I had charcoal smeared all over my face xD

Oh lovely! xDGenerally I stay pretty clean at school, or clean in general, but it was the first time that I tried out the splatter technique so I was bound to get a little messy!But one medium I always get dirty with is pastels (charcoal too, but I rarely use charcoal). I get it EVERYWHERE. On my clothes, in my hair, on my face...People always find it very amusing. xP
